Review:

2008 Wine Spectator - 90 points - Smooth and velvety, polishing its ripe currant and blackberry flavors with refined tannins. This has presence and depth. Drink now through 2018. - H.S.

Deep earthy aromas with tobacco leaf and espresso leads to a broad, rich mouthfeel. Dark cherry fruit with harmonious layers of velvety tannins. Beautiful length on the spicy finish. - the winery

2006 Vintage Tasting Notes

The heady aromatics of dark cherry and spice highlight the nose. Bright blackberry fruit combines with vanilla notes mid palate framed with good acidity. The finish shows off well integrated tannins with a hint of clove that lingers. 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc

The hearty scent of currant and dark berry dominate the incredible nose. Well integrated oak shows in the mouth with flavors of vanilla and rich dark cherry. Spice and smooth tannins come through on the finish along with hints of bright berry fruit.
